Wanting konsole's 'Open Terminal Here' to open in current working directory

[Snowhog]

What file controls the Actions | Open Terminal Here function (right-clicking in the open window in Konqueror)? Selecting the action opens a root konsole shell in location /root. If it is possible, I'd like to have the konsole open in the folder that is being viewed within konqueror?

What file controls ...

/usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/konsolehere.desktop

I'd like to have ...

... the default - which works well on my "Edgy", "Feisty" and "Gutsy"
(provided that the Bash config does not contain "contrary code" ).

Thank you. That confirms that I was looking at the right file. In that file, at the bottom, is the line that executes the konsole with --workdir %f

I have looked high and low to find information on what the %f actuall does. I know that --workdir is used to specify what working directory to use (man konsole). As konsole opens in location /root I have to assume that it tells the command to open there. If so, then what option (to replace %f) would provide for konsole to open in the currently viewed directory? Where can I find documentation on the --workdir %[] options?

Neither high nor low enough, I dare to say

I've been to this site. It does not provide information concerning the 'dir' for --workdir
--workdir dir

'dir' in this context, means specify a directory to use, i.e. '/home/username' would cause konsole to open in /home/username

# http://standards.freedesktop.org/des...-spec-1.0.html

This site provides information concerning the field code (the %[] entry). Thank you. I did not find this site during my searching. The available field codes don't appear to provide one that would do what I'm wanting, or am I not understanding the descriptions of what the codes do?

Here F4 opens konsole in the folder that is being viewed within konqueror/dolphin.
Same with right click -> open terminal here.
